How to use "Inherit" in context?
Inheritance can be a boon or a curse. On one hand, it can provide you with a leg up in the world, as your parents' wealth and resources can be tapped into without having to start from scratch. On the other hand, inheriting money can mean inherited debt, bills, and responsibilities. It all comes down to knowing what you're getting yourself into - which is something that you'll only learn by doing.
